Yet we all know that our clients are not cookies; hence there is no one perfect cookie cutter approach that will work with everyone over time. Our work needs to be sensitive and informed by our client’s resources and vulnerabilities. These resources and vulnerabilities are often created within the context of oppression by a dominant cultural group. The Collaborative Change Model promotes healing through harnessing the natural cycle of change and having an acute Ethical Attunement to the client’s community, family, and internal contexts in which they live. This intensive workshop will explore the elements of transformative trauma treatment - The Collaborative Change Model. Key Learning Concepts:
